The more he understood, the more Chu Tianjiang sighed.

In just a few months, the United States, once proclaimed itself a holy land of democracy and freedom, suddenly went back 2,000 years and returned to the age of barbaric obscurantism.

This reflects from one side that democracy and freedom in the United States are also built on the basis of survival.

When survival is a problem, and it becomes a priority for all, then democracy and freedom, and even morality and ethics, are left behind.

Chu Tianjiang knew that he was not qualified to accuse Stewart, and he was qualified to accuse the slave owner if he changed his name.

In this world that adheres to the law of the jungle, not enslaving others is tantamount to being enslaved by others, and no one can escape the law of survival of the jungle.

Towards midnight, Nicole and the others returned to camp.

Sure enough, Mark's Skeleton Legion had already entered Death Valley, and was ambushed near the abandoned town that ambushed the convoy. Because the two roads in the canyon converge south of the abandoned town, and the caravan has to go north to Las Vegas, the caravan must pass through the town.

After inquiring about the situation, Chu Tianjiang asked Nicol to go out.

"It's probably too late to go back now."

"If you can't overcome even this little difficulty, do you still expect to go to Salt Lake City?" Chu Tianjiang glanced at Stewart and said, "Besides, you don't want to be the general manager for the rest of your life, do you?" As long as you do this business well, you can become the general manager, and I can make a lot of money. ”

"But ......"

"Now, there are two ways." Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "Which method to adopt is determined by two factors. One is how much food we still have and how long it can be consumed. The second is whether to rush to Las Vegas as soon as possible, that is, whether it can be delayed for a few more days. ”

"This ......," Stewart thought for a while, and said, "Food is not a problem, we left Las Vegas with a month's worth of rations, and we bought some in the town, and counting your consumption, the rest of the food is enough for fifteen days." ”

"Twenty days."

"If you save a little, twenty days will definitely be no problem. It's just that it will take at least four days to get to Las Vegas from here, if not any other trouble. ”

"It's five days."

"In that case, we can stay here for half a month. Just ......"

"Trouble over there in Las Vegas?"

Stewart nodded and said, "Before leaving, I only planned to spend half a month round trip, and now thirteen days have passed, and even if it takes another four days, it will take a total of seventeen days." If we delay here for three days, the caravan will leave Las Vegas. ”

"That's your caravan, will it leave you?"

"The caravans are all from the Chamber of Commerce, not personal, we just run the caravans for the Chamber of Commerce. According to the rules, whenever something happens to the general secretary or general affairs, the deacon under him will take over by himself. If we don't get to Las Vegas within seven days, the deacons who stay behind will decide something happened to me. Stewart sighed and said, "If enough slaves have been bought, the caravan won't wait for us." It is important to know that when a caravan stays in a town, it will cost a lot of capital every day, and an extra day of delay means an extra penny. ”

"In that case, we'll have to hurry up."

"This ......"

Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "Tomorrow we will set off on time, I will let Andre and the three of them stay to protect the caravan, and I will take the others to the front to open the way." ”

"Nichol, them?"

"Dude, do you still look down on them?" Chu Tianjiang shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm not afraid that you won't believe it, even the three Andre brothers are not their opponents." ”

"This ......"

"Well, let's go before dawn." Chu Tianjiang knew that only through action could he convince Stewart of their strength. "Clara stayed in the caravan, with Kelly accompanying her, Andre and the others remained to protect the caravan, and I only took six men to deal with Mark."

"Seven of you against five hundred!?"

"Actually, it's enough for me alone. It's just that time is limited, so I brought them with me. Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "We set off two hours early, and when the caravan reaches the Valley of Death, the battle will be over." Of course, if anything happens, you can escape in time. ”

Stewart was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "I will never run away." ”

"That's fine. By the way, you'll have to arrange it. ”

"Arrange what?"

"Food shouldn't be worth a lot of money, right?"

"Of course, the last thing I need right now is food."

"Then just bring five days' rations, throw away the rest of the food, and vacate the vehicle."

"This ......"

"Weapons and ammunition are definitely worth more than food, right?"

Stewart was startled, looked at Chu Tianjiang in disbelief, and said, "You mean, you want to annihilate Mark's skeleton army?" ”

"They're coming to die, what can I do?"

"This ......"

"When we arrived in Las Vegas, the caravan grew in size and needed to recruit more escorts, Mark was very thoughtful and specially sent weapons and ammunition, how could we refuse."

"Chu, you...... You're too confident, aren't you? ”

Chu Tianjiang laughed and said, "You don't know the way, the last thing I lack as a person is self-confidence. By tomorrow night, you'll know if I only have confidence. ”

Stewart gritted his teeth and said, "Since this is the case, I will give my life to accompany the gentleman." ”

"How do you accompany?"

"I'll go with you."

"There's no need for that." Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "However, I need six vehicles. I'll leave the bus for you, and we'll take the rest. ”

"This ......"

"Let Mark think that the caravan has entered the ambush circle, and let him take the initiative to come up and send him to his death. If I don't, I'll have to spend my time chasing them. ”

Stewart was stunned again and said, "This ...... Isn't that for him to attack you? ”

"Don't worry, I've figured out how to deal with him."

Although Stewart was still worried, Chu Tianjiang didn't explain more.

Leaving the tent, Chu Tianjiang called the three Andre brothers and Nichol over, arranged tasks for them, and focused on telling Kelly.

Of course, not everyone was satisfied with Chu Tianjiang's arrangement.

The three Andrei brothers suggested that three of Nicole should be allowed to stay. Chu Tianjiang didn't agree, mainly because Stewart still didn't trust Nichol and them, so only by letting the three Andre brothers stay to protect the caravan could he stabilize Stewart.

Kelly is also not satisfied, the so-called protection of Clara is nothing more than watching the excitement in the back, maybe she can't even see the excitement. Chu Tianjiang didn't order Kelly to do this, after all, she was not an entourage like the three Andre brothers, but Chu Tianjiang's wife, so she could only persuade her with good words and a little reward. After Chu Tianjiang promised to stay alone with her for one night after going to Las Vegas, Kelly reluctantly agreed.

Subsequently, Chu Tianjiang made some preparations.

The main thing was to bring out the goods carried by the bus that had been left for the caravan so that it could be loaded onto the caravan of more than thirty people, and to arm Nicol and the others.

After carefully inspecting the weapons and equipment of Nicol and the other six people, Chu Tianjiang let them each get into a vehicle.

After saying goodbye to the three brothers, Clara, Kelly and Andre, Chu Tianjiang found Stewart again and told him before he got into the off-road vehicle driven by Nichol and led the team to set off.

"Husband, is it necessary to make it so complicated?"

"What, a little bored?" Chu Tianjiang smiled and said to Nicole, "Stewart doesn't know our true ability, and we can't let him know it, so we have to set off early and drive the vehicle." Of course, you have to use firearms as much as possible. ”

"I understand, it's just that I think it's too much trouble."

Clara said, just take it as a group tour. According to Stewart, Las Vegas is also a metropolis, second only to Denver in the Western Region. ”

"What does it matter, I've been to Las Vegas before."

"I've heard that there are a lot of big malls there."

"Big mall?"

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "It's all big shopping malls for the rich, with all kinds of clothes, leather bags, leather shoes and the like. ”

"You're going to take us to the mall?"

"I'm fine, the key is whether you want to go or not."

"Of course you want to go, and you promised it a long time ago, you promised us in Moscow."

Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "In this case, it is even more necessary to come step by step, otherwise you can only go to Denver." ”

"Husband, you are so good to us."

"Zhilu said that I am good to you, then you must be more obedient, and don't be like Rachel, who will complain about this and that. If you have to complain about everything, you will soon become a yellow-faced woman. ”

"I won't, and neither will Rachel." Nichole's mouth curled.

"You puff up, and when you're angry, you're like a yellow-faced woman."

"You talk nonsense!" Nicol stretched out his hand and punched Chu Tianjiang.

"Drive carefully!"

The SUV went in an S-shape, and Nichol quickly grabbed the steering wheel and let the SUV return to the center of the road.

"In the future, I will never be allowed to say that I am a yellow-faced woman."

"Of course you're not, you're my favorite nicole."

"Favorite?"

"Of course."

"Don't you like Clara the most? Perhaps, even Anna is above me. ”

"Nicole, in my heart, no one is more important than you. From the day we met in New York, no one could replace you, let alone surpass you. "Chu Tianjiang is telling the truth." Not before, not now, and not in the future. ”

"Husband......"

"You know why I take special care of Clara, and I know why I love Anna, but that doesn't mean they're better than you." Chu Tianjiang touched Nicole's thigh, "You, and Rachel, are different from Clara, and even more different from Anna. Do you understand? ”

Nichol nodded, his eyes already teary.

"Alright, let's concentrate on driving."

"Husband, do you still love me as much as you used to?"

"Of course, and more deeply than before."

Nicol didn't say anything more, she could sense Chu Tianjiang's ideological activities, and she was extremely satisfied knowing that Chu Tianjiang didn't lie to her.
